Why does this keep happening? (Nova question)

[Jerri]

I have several mini nova's, for some reason they keep bubbling and leaking from the top.

I'm using one now, worked perfectly all day yesterday, just topped it up (used a needle top with the nova slanted) and now it's bubbling and leaking from the top.

Am I filling it wrong?

It's really starting to get on my nerves now.

And advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Are you screwing the tops back on fully?
I had one do this and that was the reason. When I looked there was a small gap.

[Jerri]

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, just checked, top is screwed on properly.

Have you checked that the wick head is screwed on tight? Maybe with unscrewing the top you've unscrewed the head abit which might allow air in to the juice? I've never had that one before? Just a thought

Also make sure your not over filling them. Too much juice = not good.
To tighten the head without emptying, unscrew the top cap, remove the rubber head and gently use a flat head screwdriver to tighten.

[Jerri]

Thanks. Will give that a try.

Make sure you push the drip tip right down. It's a snug fit.

I usually keep em upright the whole time and dont fill above 2mls - if i fill above that amount-ish it can have a small leak at fist from the 510 connector end but its just an initial leak and goes away quick. Kinda makes it annoying to use though as its not as portable as i'd like but they give good vapour and flavour so has some good advantages
Also I did notice as pointed out about when unscrewing, it can unscrew the head a bit, sometimes enough to stop the connection, guess that means its got a nice seal at the top.

I actually noticed recently that screwing the heads down too tight can result in gurglerama. It is a delicate balance, aint it?

[Jerri]

Seems the head was too tight. I turned it half a turn and it stopped after a few vapes.

Thanks

what I normaly do is give the lid a good clean underneath as there some times is a small pool of fluid , might be just something simple like that.
